Chapter Summaries

After the Mewtwo Game, Fang Yuan took Mewtwo toward the Remains of the World Tree and explained the origins of its Mew and the destruction of another Pokémon World. Mewtwo learned that a living Mew also existed, and Fang Yuan left it stunned with the news.

• The Mewtwo Game ended with Fang Yuan and Mewtwo disappearing from Hua Blue Island, while President Wen anticipated the fallout and prepared Fang Yuan’s gift.
• Fang Yuan told Mewtwo he was taking it to the place where a Mew had died, then explained that the World Tree Mew had come from a destroyed world.
• Fang Yuan described how Arceus and other Pokémon had merged fragments of that world into the current spacetime.
• Mewtwo said it might be able to return to its own world if the same spatial conditions existed.
• Fang Yuan revealed that a living Mew had told him the story, shocking Mewtwo with the news that another Mew existed.

Fang Yuan convinced Mewtwo that it could pursue Mega Evolution through its own power and unlock its potential without Evolution Stones. Mewtwo accepted his guidance and recognized him as an extraordinary Trainer, leaving Fang Yuan looking forward to Mewtwo X and Mewtwo Y.

• Mewtwo dismissed the idea that any living Mew was stronger than it, and Fang Yuan explained that Groudon and Kyogre currently surpassed it but that it could outgrow them.
• Fang Yuan claimed he could see the growth path best suited to Mewtwo, prompting skepticism from Mewtwo and Eevee.
• Fang Yuan introduced Mega Evolution, and Mewtwo noted that it required a specific stone and said it had no usable stones.
• Fang Yuan proposed that Mewtwo could Mega Evolve autonomously by using Life Energy to unlock its genes, potentially developing multiple forms.
• Mewtwo was inspired by Fang Yuan’s proposal and compared his support favorably with Team Rocket BOSS Sakaki’s attempts to restrict its power.
• Fang Yuan turned away, anticipating the future forms Mewtwo X and Mewtwo Y.

Fang Yuan revealed to Mewtwo that he came from another timeline and asked it to help investigate Mew’s death and save the world. After Mewtwo agreed to help, Fang Yuan asked it to treat Infernape and Ditto, but Mewtwo could not heal their severe injuries, leaving Infernape to recover while they remained in the timeline.

• Fang Yuan told Mewtwo that he came from a past Parallel Timeline and had been sent to save the world and investigate why Mew died in this timeline.
• Mewtwo agreed to help Fang Yuan uncover the cause of Mew’s death and prevent it from happening.
• Fang Yuan released the badly injured Infernape and Ditto and asked Mewtwo to restore them.
• Mewtwo examined Infernape and Ditto but said it could not heal the damage to their spirits, minds, and life force.
• Fang Yuan accepted that Infernape would have to rest for now, though Infernape resisted because it feared falling behind its teammates.

Fang Yuan brought Mewtwo to the World Tree Remains, where Mewtwo identified the black substance as cosmic Negative Energy and concluded it had not caused Mew’s death. Fang Yuan realized the energy might be usable to strengthen Pokémon and considered seeking the Super Ancient method for harnessing it.

• Fang Yuan and Mewtwo joined He Xiaomai at the World Tree Remains, where she sensed Mew’s familiar Aura but recognized that Mewtwo was not Mew.
• Mewtwo could not detect the Black Energy until it borrowed Lycanroc’s vision, revealing that the substance was Negative Energy from beyond the world.
• Mewtwo explained that Negative Energy could erode a world’s ecosystem but believed it had gathered after the World Tree withered rather than causing Mew’s death.
• Fang Yuan connected Negative Energy to the Super Ancient Gigantification Breeding Method and wondered whether it could be used to cultivate powerful Pokémon.
• Eevee reminded Fang Yuan that he had the sealed soul of the Pokélantis King, and Lycanroc became eager to try the potential enhancement.

Fang Yuan questioned the Pokélantis King about the Ritual of Ancient Power and learned that meteorites carried the energy used to create Super Ancient Beasts. The King’s clues led Fang Yuan to suspect that Lycanroc’s unusual eyes and Aura might make it suited to mastering Perfect Gigantification.

• Fang Yuan brought the Pokélantis King out of his stone box and explained his history to Mewtwo.
• Fang Yuan told Mewtwo that he hoped to use Negative Energy and the King’s Super Ancient Breeding Method.
• The Pokélantis King explained that meteorites carried invasive energy, and the Ancient Civilization used rituals and Super Ancient Beasts to contain it.
• The Pokélantis King said that beasts able to control their size could sense meteorite energy and might learn to control it perfectly.
• Fang Yuan realized that Lycanroc’s mutated azure eyes and Aura might let it sense Ancient Power and master Perfect Gigantification.

Lycanroc asked to accept the World Tree Remains' inheritance and use Negative Energy to become stronger, hoping to protect the World Tree and help Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan agreed to let Lycanroc consider the risks after speaking with Giant Dragonite, while Lycanroc resolved to master Super Ancient Gigantification.

• Lycanroc pleaded with Fang Yuan to let it absorb the Negative Energy and attempt Super Ancient Gigantification.
• Fang Yuan warned Lycanroc that it might become a permanently giant Pokémon, but Lycanroc remained determined.
• Fang Yuan decided to take Lycanroc to Dragon Island in a couple of days so it could hear Giant Dragonite's experience before deciding.
• Mewtwo said it opposed shortcuts to power but would support Lycanroc if its resolve was genuine, and Fang Yuan agreed.
• Lycanroc climbed a mountain and resolved to gain strength so it could repay Fang Yuan and the World Tree and help protect the ecosystem.

Fang Yuan asked Mewtwo to retrieve the Plates Mew had hidden so they could help awaken Arceus and protect the world’s dimensions. Mewtwo blasted open Mew’s space treasure trove and recovered three Plates, which it kept as Fang Yuan suggested a way to use them to challenge Mew.

• Fang Yuan explained that they needed to gather the Plates to awaken Arceus and prevent the time and space dimensions from collapsing.
• Mewtwo blasted open Mew’s hidden Different Dimension, waking the Pokémon guarding the World Tree.
• Mewtwo stopped three Plates as they flew out, and Fang Yuan identified them as the Blue Sky, Water Drop, and Dragon Stone Plates.
• Fang Yuan told Mewtwo that his Transcendence Power let him borrow a Plate’s power and asked Mewtwo to study the three newly found Plates.
• Fang Yuan suggested Mewtwo could use the Plates to persuade Mew to battle, and Mewtwo silently accepted the favor.

After resolving the matter with Mewtwo and finding three Plates, Fang Yuan planned a month-long trip to gather Legendary Resources and strengthen his Pokémon. He assigned the injured and training Pokémon to stay at the World Tree while he prepared to travel with the rest.

• Fang Yuan told Rotom to shut off the communications system after it received dozens of messages from the Trainer Association, then outlined plans to visit Dragon Island, Nightmare Island, and the Deep Sea Temple.
• Fang Yuan promised resources for Dragonite, Milotic, Armored Magnezone, and Gluttony Ghost, while explaining that the Life Fire in this timeline had burned itself out during a disaster.
• Eevee chose to train at the World Tree and care for Infernape, while Mewtwo stayed behind to watch over the Negative Energy and train in Autonomous Mega Evolution.
• Fang Yuan decided that Infernape, Ditto, Eevee, Mewtwo, and Venusaur would remain at the World Tree to recover, train, or restore the area as he traveled with the others to seek Legendary Resources.

Fang Yuan left Darkrai with Celebi for training, then traveled across the world to search for Plates and collect Legendary Resources. After confirming that no Plates remained, he headed for the Sea God Temple to meet Sea Prince again.

• Fang Yuan persuaded Celebi to train Darkrai for a month by revealing that he had captured Mewtwo, and Celebi eagerly agreed to protect and guide Darkrai.
• Fang Yuan explained Darkrai's powerful Nightmare Domain techniques, encouraged it to improve its social skills, and left it with Celebi.
• Fang Yuan traveled to Nightmare Island, where his Pokémon defeated Alternate Dimension Darkrai; he helped it and explained how to hatch Victini before departing.
• Fang Yuan and his team searched the world for leftover Plates while the China Association gathered Mega Stones and prepared Silver Liquid Metal, Billion-Year Never-Melt Ice, and the Wish Stone.
• After confirming that no Plates remained, Fang Yuan took the Legendary Resources and set off for the Sea God Temple, eager to meet Sea Prince again.

Fang Yuan visited Manaphy at the Sea God Temple and secured permission for Dragonite and Milotic to train with the Sea of Origin and Silver Wing. He then invited Manaphy to Dragon Island, leaving the two Pokémon free to train together for half a month.

• Manaphy sensed Fang Yuan, Dragonite, and Milotic arriving at the Sea God Temple and watched them from hiding.
• Fang Yuan called out his titles, startling Manaphy into revealing itself and becoming his friend.
• Fang Yuan gave Manaphy Billion-Year Never-Melt Ice and a Wish Stone in exchange for Dragonite and Milotic's use of the Sea of Origin and Silver Wing.
• Fang Yuan signaled Dragonite and Milotic that they could use the Legendary Resources freely as they began their half-month training plan.
• Fang Yuan invited Manaphy to Dragon Island to meet Giant Dragonite, and Manaphy happily agreed while Dragonite urged them to leave.

Fang Yuan arrived at Dragon Island to awaken Giant Dragonite while his Pokémon cultivated with rare resources. Back at the World Tree, Eevee broke through after a month of training, and Venusaur soon followed, leaving Infernape frustrated by its teammates’ progress.

• The Dragonite Elder warmly welcomed Fang Yuan to Dragon Island because Fang Yuan had caught Mewtwo and helped the Dragonite Messenger.
• Fang Yuan gave Armored Magnezone the Silver Liquid Metal and gave Gluttony Ghost the Gengar Mega Stone, then took Rotom, Lycanroc, Sea Prince, and the Pokélantis King’s soul to awaken Giant Dragonite.
• After a month of training with Victini’s eight evolved Substitute forms, Eevee broke through and unleashed a transformed Guardian God Level Psychic Power.
• Victini awakened the Signature Move V-Create while helping Eevee train, though it doubted Eevee’s claim that Infernape’s Enhancement BUFF had caused their breakthroughs.
• Mewtwo trained with Venusaur while researching Autonomous Mega Evolution, and Venusaur learned to use Life Power and grew stronger.
• Infernape saw Eevee and Venusaur break through and angrily threatened to deal with its teammates once it recovered.

Fang Yuan returned to the World Tree after a month away and discovered that his Pokémon had grown dramatically stronger, while Dragonite and Lycanroc had also gained new power. He prepared to help Lycanroc absorb Ancient Power so the team could return, as injured Infernape watched its teammates’ breakthroughs with despair.

• Mewtwo sensed Fang Yuan approaching and noticed that Dragonite had grown stronger during their journey.
• Fang Yuan reunited with Mewtwo, asked about its progress toward Mega Evolution, and heard that it would happen soon.
• Eevee, Venusaur, Victini, and the other Pokémon welcomed Fang Yuan and showed off their breakthroughs, while Dragonite felt left behind.
• Fang Yuan released his traveling Pokémon and saw that they had also grown stronger, with his entire main team reaching its normal-state Racial Limit.
• Fang Yuan told Infernape that Milotic might be able to heal it and said the team could return after Lycanroc absorbed Ancient Power.
• Lycanroc showed confidence and anticipation, while Infernape lamented that its wounded heart could not recover from being left behind.

Fang Yuan prepared to help Lycanroc absorb Negative Energy while Mewtwo chose to leave its cloned Pokémon in the World Tree’s care. Mewtwo compared the Trainers of its world with Earth’s and warned Fang Yuan of the gap, but Fang Yuan eagerly hoped to challenge them anyway.

• Fang Yuan asked Mewtwo to inspect the Pokélantis King’s memories and help ensure Lycanroc’s Super Ancient ritual was safe.
• He Xiaomai and the Pokémon gathered Crystal Remains to support Lycanroc’s ritual and purify the World Tree’s Negative Energy.
• Mewtwo decided to leave its cloned Pokémon in the World Tree’s domain, where they had settled in alongside the other Pokémon.
• Fang Yuan teased Mewtwo about learning time travel, then asked it to compare Trainers from both worlds.
• Mewtwo explained that Earth’s strongest Trainers would struggle against the many powerful Champions and Elite Four of its world.
• Fang Yuan eagerly said he wanted Eevee to challenge Trainers such as Sakaki and Wataru, while Mewtwo refused to help him when he got beaten.

Mewtwo explained the origins and workings of Super Ancient Gigantification, and Fang Yuan’s Lycanroc underwent the ritual. Lycanroc grew to nearly one hundred meters tall, leaving Fang Yuan and Mewtwo to wonder whether it could control its size with Ancient Power.

• After examining the Pokélantis King's memories and Rotom's data, Mewtwo determined that Lycanroc’s Gigantification ritual had a success rate above 99% if it avoided absorbing too much power.
• Mewtwo compared Super Ancient Gigantification to Gigantamax and said it considered the ancient method more reliable than borrowing external power.
• Fang Yuan returned to the World Tree, where Rotom and Porygon helped Lycanroc research Super Ancient Gigantification while the other Pokémon focused on their own pursuits.
• Two days later, Lycanroc unleashed a howl atop Mount Everest and appeared as a colossal Pokémon, startling Eevee, Victini, Infernape, Ditto, and the others.
• Fang Yuan and Mewtwo saw that Lycanroc’s Gigantification had succeeded, but questioned whether it could use Ancient Power to shrink itself after growing nearly one hundred meters long.

Lycanroc absorbed Negative Energy from the World Tree Remains and transformed into a gigantic Super Ancient Pokémon with power approaching Guardian God Level. It learned to control its size, but shrinking also weakened it, so Fang Yuan planned to let it keep training before the group headed home.

• Lycanroc awakened its ancient power after absorbing the World Tree Remains, and Fang Yuan warned Mewtwo not to get drawn into Luo Ke’s chuunibyou antics.
• Lycanroc searched for a sparring partner but found that its enormous body made it difficult to fight the others.
• At Fang Yuan’s urging, Lycanroc used Aura Perception to control the Negative Energy in its markings and shrank from a hundred meters to a few meters.
• Lycanroc discovered that shrinking also reduced its strength to an ordinary top-level standard, and the old king could not explain why.
• Fang Yuan concluded that Lycanroc needed time to master its power, while the group prepared to leave after spending over a month at the World Tree.

Fang Yuan prepared to leave the Future Parallel Timeline after Lycanroc tested its Ancient Power-enhanced Gigantification, which proved powerful but exhausting. He said goodbye to He Xiaomai, settled affairs with the Five God Pillar Brothers, and departed toward his next destination, while Yuan Mei glimpsed him in Flat City.

• Fang Yuan observed Lycanroc's giant form and warned it that using Ancient Power was exhausting it; Lycanroc returned to its normal size and Master Level strength.
• Fang Yuan and his team said goodbye to He Xiaomai and left the World Tree with the remaining World Tree Remains that contained Negative Energy.
• In Jiangsu Province, Fang Yuan gave the Pokélantis King's soul to the Five God Pillar Brothers and left his Odd Keystone with them to keep the king sealed.
• Fang Yuan visited Flat City, where Yuan Mei glimpsed him and recognized his resemblance to her idol, the Legendary Trainer Red.
• Mewtwo told Fang Yuan that Yuan Mei seemed to have strong Psychic Power talent, while Fang Yuan planned to find Celebi and Darkrai before returning home.

After a month of training in Celebi’s Time Domain, Darkrai returned with preliminary control over time in dreams. Fang Yuan and his Pokémon traveled back to the Original Timeline, where Mew began to worry that Fang Yuan might have been killed by Mewtwo.

• Celebi trained Darkrai in a Time Domain for a month, helping it take its first steps toward mastering time through dreams.
• Fang Yuan returned to Ilex Forest with Dragonite, Eevee, Victini, and Mewtwo, and Celebi proudly presented Darkrai’s progress.
• Mewtwo recognized Celebi as the Pokémon that had once interfered with its Future Sight, but let the old incident go.
• Fang Yuan thanked Celebi and praised Darkrai, whose strengthened Nightmare Power could overwhelm ordinary High-Level Guardian God Pokémon.
• Celebi brought Fang Yuan and the others through the Time-Space Channel to the Original Timeline.
• Mew woke in the World Tree and worried that Fang Yuan might have been beaten to death by Mewtwo in the other timeline.

Fang Yuan returned to the Original Timeline with three new Plates and told Mew that Mewtwo had been cloned from her genes and once sought to kill her. He then brought Mewtwo into the research institute, leaving Mew terrified at their first meeting.

• Mew sensed Fang Yuan's return and teleported to Fang Yuan Research Institute to find him.
• Fang Yuan returned with Eevee, Victini, Rotom, Porygon, and Celebi, and told Mew they had found Dragon-, Water-, and Flying-type Plates.
• Fang Yuan explained that Team Rocket had used a fossilized Mew eyelash to clone Mew and create Mewtwo, who had wanted to find and kill Mew.
• Fang Yuan told Mew that he had reached an understanding with Mewtwo, earned its recognition, subdued it, and invited it to the Original Timeline.
• Fang Yuan released Mewtwo from a Red and White Ball, and Mew trembled at the sight of the powerful Pokémon.

Fang Yuan introduced Mew to Mewtwo, whose challenge and offer of Arceus Plates left Mew terrified and angry. Mewtwo eventually returned the Plates and left, while Mew decided Fang Yuan was the only bad guy and wanted to send him to another Parallel Timeline.

• Fang Yuan released Mewtwo at the research institute, and Mew panicked under its intense aura.
• Fang Yuan explained the Mewtwo Game and how he had persuaded Mewtwo to become less hostile toward humans and Mew.
• Mewtwo offered Mew three Arceus Plates if it accepted a battle, while Fang Yuan admitted from upstairs that Mewtwo had helped him find them.
• Mew refused to battle, so Mewtwo returned the Plates and left, hoping Mew would challenge it someday.
• Mew collected the Plates, blamed Fang Yuan for the whole scheme, and decided to team up with Celebi to send him to another Parallel Timeline.

Fang Yuan brought Infernape and Ditto to Mew for treatment and told her what he knew about the World Tree's death in the other timeline. Mew learned that Lycanroc had grown powerful and rushed to the World Tree, leaving her determined to send Fang Yuan and his Pokémon on another mission to find the Plates.

• Fang Yuan summoned Infernape and Ditto, but Mew initially refused to treat them because she was still upset with him.
• Fang Yuan persuaded Mew to examine the pair by mentioning the World Tree's death in the future timeline and the Fighting Stone Plate.
• Mew determined that Victini's help would let her treat Infernape and Ditto, and Fang Yuan returned the Fighting Stone Plate to her.
• Fang Yuan told Mew about the Negative Energy, showed her the World Tree Remains, and explained Lycanroc's ability to see the Negative Energy Core and his new Gigantification power.
• Mew realized Lycanroc had gone to the World Tree and sensed that he had provoked it by maintaining his Gigantification form and hugging it.
• Mew glared at Fang Yuan and resolved to send him and the others on a new mission to find the Plates.
